A 62-year-old Serco employee has been charged with misconduct in public office after allegedly sharing the addresses of asylum seekers housed in Thetford, Norfolk. The leak coincided with three consecutive nights of unrest earlier this month, during which protesters attempted to enter properties believed to be housing illegal immigrants. Police officers were subjected to significant hostility during the disorder.
Both the BBC and GB News reported on the charge against the Serco employee. GB News specifically connected the address leak to the targeting of properties during the unrest. No right-leaning sources reported the story beyond GB News.
With the Serco employee appearing before magistrates, the case is now proceeding through the legal system. The situation raises questions about the security of asylum seeker housing and the potential for leaks of sensitive information, as well as the motivations behind the protests and disorder in Thetford.
